After parting ways with his cousin and Bi Hui, Zhu Yuanyu returned to Zhu Mansion.
He was sweating, so Zhu Yuanyu took a shower and changed into a set of clothes first. Then he went to the main hall to have dinner with his mother, Prince Chunmei. His father, Zhu Dafu, was not at home during the day these days. He went out to discuss business with people and only came back at night.
When I arrived at the main hall, I greeted Wang Chunmei before sitting down.
"Good son, my mother ordered the kitchen to stew cordyceps flower teal soup for you. You should drink more, I see you have lost weight..." Wang Chunmei pinched Zhu Yuanyu's cheek with pity.
"...Yes, yes?"
Zhu Yuanyu lowered his head and measured his waistline with his eyes. It seemed like it was a little bigger?
Look up at your mother. Are your eyes correct?
"Mom said yes. Anyway, you have to drink more to make up for it." Wang Chunmei gave the order.
"Okay." Zhu Yuanyu said depressedly.
The two sat down, and the servant quickly presented four dishes and one soup, all of which were Zhu Yuanyu's favorite home-cooked dishes. There are minced pepper fish head, sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried shrimps, garlic broccoli, and finally the cordyceps flower teal soup.
Zhu Yuanyu looked at it and moved his index finger.
Wang Chunmei smiled and told the servants not to wait, and personally scooped a bowl of soup for Zhu Yuanyu, "Here."
Zhu Yuanyu held the porcelain bowl in both hands. It must have been stewed for a while. The soup was warm and just suitable for putting into the mouth.
Zhu Yuanyu took a bite, and his mouth was filled with rich sweetness, which was very delicious.
"Mom, it tastes delicious. You should drink it too."
Wang Chunmei smiled and nodded. The maid served her a bowl. She picked it up and took a sip, "Not bad."
The mother and son were eating happily, when a maid came in with a hesitant look on her face.
Wang Chunmei saw it, put down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped her mouth with a silk handkerchief, "What's wrong?"
"Old Madam...she refused to eat. She said she wanted to see Madam you..."
"Bad luck!" Wang Chunmei cursed, "I want to see what else she will do!"
Seeing Wang Chunmei getting up, Zhu Yuanyu also put down his chopsticks, "Mom, are you full?"
"Well, mom is full. Son, please continue eating and finish the soup. I'll go take care of that old godly woman!"
Zhu Yuanyu looked helplessly as his mother walked out of the door angrily.
"You have to go through all the trouble again. This Zhou family really doesn't know how to live or die."
…
Following her mother's instructions, Zhu Yuanyu drank all the soup in the cup.
Then slowly walking back to the study, Zhu Yuanyu took out the rare treasure from Jade Perry and pondered it. If you want to confirm whether the exotic treasure has detoxification function, you must first test it with poisonous things.
It happened that Zhu Yuanyu had been infected with a poison before, which he had collected on his way to Beijing. At that time, on the official road, Zhu Yuanyu accompanied Zhu Dafu into the forest for a walk. He accidentally found a piece of grass that had withered for no reason, and in the middle grew a small umbrella-shaped mushroom, which was very bright.
Seeing the black light emitting from the little mushroom, Zhu Yuanyu knew that it was a poison, and it was a very powerful poison, robbing the surrounding plants of all their vitality.
Zhu Yuanyu became curious and walked over. It was difficult to touch it directly, so he used the power in his body to urge the halo to form a film on his hand, and then uprooted the little mushroom.
The little mushroom has been shelved like this, and now it can finally be put to use.
Zhu Yuanyu took out a wooden box from Jade Perry, tore off the yellow talisman on it, opened the lid, and found a small mushroom lying quietly inside.
He placed the small mushroom next to the exotic treasure and quietly waited for a reaction.
Sure enough, things changed in a short while. The color of the small mushroom gradually becomes lighter, and the exotic treasure gradually turns black. The exotic treasure is transforming the poison of the small mushroom into itself.
After confirming that what he thought was correct, Zhu Yuanyu separated the two.
Putting the little mushroom, which was much lighter in color, back into the wooden box and sealing it, Zhu Yuanyu pinched the exotic treasure again and looked at it carefully.
He could see that the exotic treasure was constantly devouring the poisonous gas. Although it was very slow, it could be proved that the exotic treasure was not disposable, but could be recycled. As long as it consumed the poisonous gas, it could return to its original smooth appearance.
Zhu Yuanyu then thought that Zhu Dafu often went out and she owed him a treasure. It seemed that he had seen him wearing a dagger when he went on a cruise with Bi Hui. The dagger has become spiritual. If someone casts a spell on it, it will be a good guardian. It would be most appropriate to give Zhu Dafu a dagger that can protect the owner.
Before, I had no excuse to ask for it from Bi Hui, but now that I have the exotic treasure, everything is no longer a problem.
…
The next day.
The three of them made an appointment to swim in the lake together.
The three of them talked and laughed while boating on the lake, drinking tea and admiring the scenery.
"Brother Bi, can you lend me your dagger?" Zhu Yuanyu suddenly mentioned to Bi Hui.
Bi Hui was also surprised that Zhu Yuanyu suddenly asked to see his dagger, but he did not refuse and took it off his body and handed it to Zhu Yuanyu.
Zhu Yuanyu took it and watched and played with it carefully.
"You like it?"
"It's very good, very sharp."
"Then I'll give it to you." Bi Hui suddenly said with a thought in his heart.
"No! Isn't this your most precious thing?!" Wang Jinyi said first and glared at Zhu Yuanyu.
Zhu Yuanyu was confused, why was he staring at him?
Bi Hui smiled and said, "Giving the treasure to the destined person, since Yuan Yu likes it, it doesn't matter."
"Okay, you! I liked it last time too, so why didn't you give it to me?" Wang Jinyi glanced sideways at him. His nose was not his nose, his mouth was not his mouth.
Bi Hui laughed, "Today is not what it used to be, and it cannot be compared to the past."
Wang Jinyi looked disgusted and ignored the two of them.
Zhu Yuanyu took advantage of the opportunity to take out the exotic treasure, pretended to take it out of his sleeves using his different perspective, and then gave it to Bi Hui.
The cool fingertips touched Bi Hui's warm palm, causing a burst of itching.
Bi Hui looked down and saw a bead the size of a grain of rice in his palm.
"This is……"
"Shh!" Zhu Yuanyu stuffed another note into Bi Hui's ear and whispered in his ear: "I'll read it when I get home."
Bi Hui smiled in his eyes and nodded in agreement.
Zhu Yuanyu was originally worried about how to ask Bi Hui for the exchange of treasures, but he didn't expect it to be solved immediately. Bi Hui is really a good person, and good people will be rewarded!
…
Back at the General's Mansion, Bi Hui screened away the others and picked up the rare treasure to look at carefully. It was hard to tell what it looked like, and there was no record of such a thing among the rare treasures Bi Hui knew. Judging from the appearance of Zhu Yuanyu's treasure, it must not be ordinary, so he took out the note given by Zhu Yuanyu.
The note was yellow with cinnabar writing on it. It could be seen that the person who wrote it was in a hurry and the handwriting was a bit messy.
Recalling Zhu Yuanyu's sneaky look, Bi Hui was secretly amused.
When he carefully read what was written on the note, surprise appeared on Bi Hui's face - the exotic treasure can detoxify, and keeping it on your body for a period of time will definitely help your legs.
